On October 7th, members of the Marion Bridge Fire Department visited Marion Bridge Elementary as part of Fire Prevention Week. Our members supervised a fire drill, provided an educational session for the students, and put on a demonstration with the trucks and some of the gear used in an emergency. It was a great experience for both students and members. The students were engaged and had lots of great questions! Thank you to the students and staff of Marion Bridge Elementary!

Cape Breton Regional Police are looking for help to identify a person and vehicle in an investigation into a suspicious fire at the Mira Boat Club.

Police responded to an alarm at the Hillside Road property at approximately 1:45 AM October 9th, where they arrived to fire services on scene working to extinguish a structure fire. Officers cleared the property and surrounding area and collected information from employees who had also responded to the alarm. The Fire Marshall processed the scene, with assistance from CBRPS Forensic Identification officers, and determined the fire suspicious, which has been referred to the CBRPS Arson Investigator.

Through investigative efforts, including a neighbourhood canvass, statements and evidence collected at the scene, police have identified a vehicle and person present at the property prior to the fire. Anyone with information that can help identify this person or vehicle – a 4-door car, believed to be grey in colour – or who saw or heard anything suspicious in the area between the hours of 10:00 PM October 8th and 2:00 AM October 9th, is asked to please contact police at 902-563-5151 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
